Efficacy of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning as Non Pharmacologic Strategy to Prevent Contrast Induced Nephropathy (PAIR)

Summary

This study evaluates remote ischemic preconditioning as an strategy to avoid contrast induced nephropathy. All of the patients will receive endovenous normal saline to prevent nephropathy, half of the patients will receive remote ischemic preconditioning while the other half will not.
